This weekend socially distanced vigils have been banned. Next week the Tories are proposing new laws that, amongst other egregious things, attack the right to protest. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: It’s a dangerous descent into authoritarianism. It must be challenged.

Read . ‘s thread. I delved into this horrific murk of history during my masters. This should not lie carefully hidden until stumbled upon in academe, but be taught to all of our children so their natural shock can drive them to fight against misogyny at every turn.

Horrific news. Our orchestras, theatre and dance companies are some of the finest in the world. Now the Government tells us “music, dance, drama and performing arts, art and design ... are not among our strategic priorities.” Funding for those courses is to be cut by 50%

Capitalism is trending so let's all take this time to agree that a system based on the idea that if we're all selfish it'll somehow work itself out is absurd

Last weekend Year 9-13 students took part in “Cultural Baggage” our @istatheatre festival The British School. They embraced powerful historical learning from The AfricaMuseum to explore, through theatre, sensitive issues of cultural identity. It was an amazing educational experience.

It’s with a heavy heart that we have had to suspend BBC News (UK) operations in Russia until we assess impact of new laws which outlaw independent journalism. Thoughts with colleagues in Moscow whose voices cannot be silenced for long.

People fleeing for their lives from war & persecution should be treated as we would hope to be treated, if we were them. Please watch & share this film if you agree. #NotACriminal #TogetherWithRefugees with @RefugeeCouncil

Ideas to save education, a thread: 1) Sabbaticals Every 5 years give teachers a fully funded sabbatical, of 1 term. Could be used to visit settings, research, visit other countries, rest and reflect. If 5 years is a retention crunch point, this might help out in a big way.

On 16 January, all Brits abroad will be able to register to vote in UK elections thanks to the overturning of the 15 year rule which denied us our democratic voting rights. On the day we will be sharing instructions, links & useful info to aid the process, so watch this space!

Fucking hell. The teaching of music and arts to kids is about SO MUCH MORE for them than music and arts, but that aside these are areas in which SO FAR we as a country have excelled. Even from a non-artistic point of view they’re worth preserving. We’re letting them die.

#magicattwilight You moved through my garden like liquefied velvet, seemed to leave versions of self in every dark shadow before you'd appear elsewhere. A shapeshifter's trick, I knew too well. Yet you still surprised, flashing form in a new place. I'd been distracted too long.

We are all artists, all creators, all dreamers until someone tells us we aren't. No matter our ages, we need to silence those voices, those inner & outer critics, so that we can imagine, make, create, & explore our world through words, song, dance, art. (art by Sarah Hand)

Yesterday, five people were imprisoned under the draconian new Tory laws for between 4 and 5 years, for entirely peaceful protest. Longer than many offenders get for major violent crimes. My column this week calls for Labour to repeal those laws. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
